Worked on the sillsdev/libpalaso and sillsdev/languageforge-lexbox repositories, delivering automation, versioning, and CI/CD improvements over five months. Developed automated workflows using GitHub Actions and YAML to update language data, streamline NuGet package releases, and enforce semantic versioning for safer Windows installer patching. Addressed XML namespace preservation in WriteNode, enhancing data integrity and export reliability. Strengthened test coverage and build validation for the fw-lite subsystem, reducing feedback loops and improving release quality. Contributed to documentation and configuration management, using C#, Bash, and Markdown to support maintainable processes and clear developer guidance across software packaging, testing, and version control workflows.
December 2025: Key Versioning Improvements in the libpalaso repository to improve release clarity, patch management, and traceability. Introduced Versioning Policy Enhancements with semantic versioning guidelines and enhanced assembly file versioning to include a weighted pre-release number for Windows installer patching. This supports safer patches, better release notes, and downstream compatibility.
